Review – Annie Hall

By all rights I should hate this film. I’m not wild about Woody Allen, especially when he gets going on his sexual hang-ups (which as near as I can tell is most of the time). I don’t really identify with the 70s-era idle intellectuals and their sad little personal problems. The dialogue strikes me as artificial, and the plot (to the extent that there is one) doesn’t seem to go much of anywhere. But still, there’s just something about this movie that I like. I can’t really explain it. So if you have to sit through one Allen film, I’d say go for this one. Worth watching
